Captured in 1388 in the act of stealing back his own
cattle, young Sir William Scott faces hanging, then gets
one other choice--to marry immediately his captor's eldest
daughter, the lady Margaret Murray, known by all as Muckle-
Mouth Meggie. With the line between England and Scotland
shifting daily, the Earl of Douglas wants to win back
every inch of Scotland that the English have claimed;
whereas the equally powerful English Percies (under
Hotspur) want to win back the land between Northumberland
and Edinburgh; and the Murray family is caught in the
middle, shifting its alliances to try to survive.
Uncertain whether she is English or Scottish and abruptly
married to Sir William who is staunchly loyal to the cause
of Scottish independence but who also has promised he'll
never take up arms against her family, Meg Murray learns
two things: first, Will's word is his bond; second, her
favorite brother is spying on Douglas for Hotspur. As Sir
Will faces the dilemma of honoring his word to the
unscrupulous Murray without betraying Douglas, Meg must
choose between betraying the husband with whom she is
rapidly falling in love, or betraying her own family and
best-loved brother.
